MILFORD/ORANGE YMCA

Thank you for your interest in our upcoming Open Water (Beginner) scuba course at our dive center and the Milford/Orange YMCA. Our successful one day scuba course meets on one Saturday from 9am-5:30pm. Classroom session is from 9am-12noon at Orbit Marine. Pool session is at the Milford/Orange YMCA from 12:30-5:50pm.The course fee includes all scuba gear except mask, fins, snorkels, booties and log book. The fee also includes a DVD, text book and work book (take home exam). Students are encouraged to enroll at least one week prior to course date as time will be needed to complete the required take home test booklet.

Upon completion of the class and pool sessions, the student needs to complete four open water training dives. These dives can be done locally (spring, summer, fall) or while on a tropical vacation (we provide a “referral letter). Upon completion of the four  open water training dives, completed in two, half day sessions, the student will receive an Internationally recognized Open Water Diver certification card.

The fee for this program is $300.00 per person. If more than one person can share the same DVD, the second, third, etc. student’s fee is only $265.00 each, payable upon enrollment.

The fee for the two, half day open water boat sessions is $210.00 per person, and like the Open Water course, includes rental of all scuba gear (except mask, fins, snorkel, booties and log book), boat fees, instructor fees and registration fees.

We don’t make you drive to far off destinations to complete your open water dives!  We have two dive boats docked at Capt. Cove Marina, Black Rock, Bridgeport and dive locations such as Penfield Reef Lighthouse and the Penfield Reef area. Your open water training will be on a boat, in salt water, similar to environments you’ll be diving in the rest of your life!

If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at any of the above numbers or e mail me at orbitdive@aol.com.  Hope to see you in class..soon!
